Need recommendation on new leaf packs...

Hello TW fam!

It's time to retire my stock leaf packs + AAL and wanted to get some recommendation on a new set of leaf packs. Currently with a full load, the rear end sags way too much...

My current setup:
5100's w 887
I keep the bedrack/rtt on all year long.

I've heard of Allpro Standard/Expo kits and Dakars (Med)? Which one is best bang for your $?

 

bump....no one?

Maybe the icon leaf pack? Don’t know how people are liking it but you basically get everything you need to set them up for 3 different weight ranges. There’s an additional leaf that you can switch I and out.

 

Icon Rxt over Dakars from personal experience.

 

dakars for bang for buck, make sure to use RUBBER ISOLATORS between the leafs and keep up on the maintenance for the bushings or they wil squeak like a MF. i went with el095R medium duty pack and great on & offroad. if you save up a bit more go with deaver u402's, much quieter and easier articulation from my experience

 

Thanks everyone for the update! Will definitely check out Deavers or the Icon RXT

 

I'm swapping from ome HDs to Deaver stage 2s my vote Deaver.

 

Vote... ICON!

 

When upgrading to new leaf springs, I'll just need a new set of ubolts and that's it correct? Want to make sure I order everything at once.

 

Awesome thanks for the heads up! When's our next monthly wheeling event BTW? Hahaha

 

Yes you should need new ubolrs depending on overall leaf thickness. Highly recommended the archive garage U-Bolt flip kit with new bump stops.

 

I completely agree! As long as we have you to lead, well be in good hands! haha

 

Hey I just got a u bolt flip kit but I think the u bolts are too wide should they not be hugging the rear axel snuggley? I have just over half an inch gap between the u bolt and the rear axel

 

I got the ubolt flip from Wheelers-- got it at Low Range here. Mine is snug. Fits perfect. bolts should easily fit lifted leaf packs

I made my own bump stops with the stock ones too

 

I figured it out one of the u bolts they sent were mislabeled, and of course that's the one a saw and was like... Wait a minute haha

 

DAMN!!! yeah shit like that happened to me with the 2.5 ICONS I originally bought from Summit. They were supposed to have 700lb springs and @Texoma was able to tell me they were the wrong springs when I sent him the part number on the actual coils. Returned them to Summit. Better off in the end... ordered tuned Elkas

Did they already send you a replacement?

 

Okay i just wanna say that with my fiberglass shell my dakar mediums got me 2.75 inches and then settled to get me 1 inch over stock (i was sagging 1 inch below stock height before the install.

just fyi with that rack and rtt the dakar mediums will probably net you 1 inch over stock height. Not necessarily a bad thing. And they’re not super stiff so that’s awesome

 

It's on its way
